Most electromagnetic actuators are rotating motors, or some variation on the theme, like servos. However, it’s possible to do linear actuation with electomagnetics, too. [Adrian Perez ...

This paper introduces a control approach for a motion system driven by a class of actuators with multiple nonlinearities. The proposed approach presents a combination of a feedforward controller and ...

A soft ring-shaped pneumatic actuator (RPA) that contracts radially plays a key role in biomimicking the contractions of the digestive system. However, the modeling and control of the RPA are still ...
